I think every one of my kids, and some others, has, at some point or another when walking through a cemetery, asked me why I salute certain headstones (obviously I'm not saluting the headstone, but the person represented by the headstone)...my answer? Gratitude and respect...with the hope that I'll meet them one day in glory...
I was doing that, as I'm sure many vets were, even before the closing moments of "Saving Private Ryan."
